תהילים 77

1 לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַֽל־ידיתון יְדוּתוּן לְאָסָף מִזְמֽוֹר׃ קוֹלִי אֶל־אֱלֹהִים וְאֶצְעָקָה קוֹלִי אֶל־אֱלֹהִים וְהַאֲזִין אֵלָֽי׃

For the end, for Idithun, a Psalm of Asaph. I cried to the Lord with my voice, yes, my voice [was addressed] to God; and he gave heed to me.

2 בְּיוֹם צָרָתִי אֲדֹנָי דָּרָשְׁתִּי יָדִי ׀ לַיְלָה נִגְּרָה וְלֹא תָפוּג מֵאֲנָה הִנָּחֵם נַפְשִֽׁי׃

In the day of mine affliction I earnestly sought the Lord; [even] with my hands by night before him, and I was not deceived; my soul refused to be comforted.

3 אֶזְכְּרָה אֱלֹהִים וְאֶֽהֱמָיָה אָשִׂיחָה ׀ וְתִתְעַטֵּף רוּחִי סֶֽלָה׃

I remembered God, and rejoiced; I poured out my complaint, and my soul fainted. (Pause)

4 אָחַזְתָּ שְׁמֻרוֹת עֵינָי נִפְעַמְתִּי וְלֹא אֲדַבֵּֽר׃

All mine enemies set a watch [against me]: I was troubled, and spoke not.

5 חִשַּׁבְתִּי יָמִים מִקֶּדֶם שְׁנוֹת עוֹלָמִֽים׃

I considered the days of old, and remembered ancient years.

6 אֶֽזְכְּרָה נְגִינָתִי בַּלָּיְלָה עִם־לְבָבִי אָשִׂיחָה וַיְחַפֵּשׂ רוּחִֽי׃

And I meditated; I communed with my heart by night, and diligently searched my spirit, [saying],

7 הַֽלְעוֹלָמִים יִזְנַח ׀ אֲדֹנָי וְלֹֽא־יֹסִיף לִרְצוֹת עֽוֹד׃

Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be well pleased no more?

8 הֶאָפֵס לָנֶצַח חַסְדּוֹ גָּמַר אֹמֶר לְדֹר וָדֹֽר׃

Will he cut off his mercy for ever, even for ever and ever?

9 הֲשָׁכַח חַנּוֹת אֵל אִם־קָפַץ בְּאַף רַחֲמָיו סֶֽלָה׃

Will God forget to pity? or will he shut up his compassions in his wrath? (Pause)

10 וָאֹמַר חַלּוֹתִי הִיא שְׁנוֹת יְמִין עֶלְיֽוֹן׃

And I said, Now I have begun; this is the change of the right hand of the Most High.

11 אזכיר אֶזְכּוֹר מַֽעַלְלֵי־יָהּ כִּֽי־אֶזְכְּרָה מִקֶּדֶם פִּלְאֶֽךָ׃

I remembered the works of the Lord; for I will remember your wonders from the beginning.

12 וְהָגִיתִי בְכָל־פָּעֳלֶךָ וּֽבַעֲלִילוֹתֶיךָ אָשִֽׂיחָה׃

And I will meditate on all your works, and will consider your doings.

13 אֱלֹהִים בַּקֹּדֶשׁ דַּרְכֶּךָ מִי־אֵל גָּדוֹל כֵּֽאלֹהִֽים׃

O God, your way is in the sanctuary; who is a great God as our God?

14 אַתָּה הָאֵל עֹשֵׂה פֶלֶא הוֹדַעְתָּ בָעַמִּים עֻזֶּֽךָ׃

You are the God that do wonders; you have made known your power among the nations.

15 גָּאַלְתָּ בִּזְרוֹעַ עַמֶּךָ בְּנֵי־יַעֲקֹב וְיוֹסֵף סֶֽלָה׃

You have with your arm redeemed your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. (Pause)

16 רָאוּךָ מַּיִם ׀ אֱ‍ֽלֹהִים רָאוּךָ מַּיִם יָחִילוּ אַף יִרְגְּזוּ תְהֹמֽוֹת׃

The waters saw you, O God, the waters saw you, and feared; and the depths were troubled.

17 זֹרְמוּ מַיִם ׀ עָבוֹת קוֹל נָתְנוּ שְׁחָקִים אַף־חֲצָצֶיךָ יִתְהַלָּֽכוּ׃

[There was] an abundant sound of waters: the clouds uttered a voice; for your arrows went abroad.

18 קוֹל רַעַמְךָ ׀ בַּגַּלְגַּל הֵאִירוּ בְרָקִים תֵּבֵל רָגְזָה וַתִּרְעַשׁ הָאָֽרֶץ׃

The voice of your thunder was abroad, and around your lightnings appeared to the world; the earth trembled a quaked.

19 בַּיָּם דַּרְכֶּךָ ושביליך וּֽשְׁבִֽילְךָ בְּמַיִם רַבִּים וְעִקְּבוֹתֶיךָ לֹא נֹדָֽעוּ׃

Your way is in the sea, and your paths in many waters, and your footsteps can’t be known.

20 נָחִיתָ כַצֹּאן עַמֶּךָ בְּֽיַד־מֹשֶׁה וְאַהֲרֹֽן׃

You did guide your people as sheep by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
